The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: II. Stellar Metallicity
Zeljko Ivezic, Branimir Sesar, Mario Juric +50
Using effective temperature and metallicity derived from SDSS spectra for ~60,000 F and G type main sequence stars (0.2<g-r<0.6), we develop polynomial models for estimating these…
Exploring the Variable Sky with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Branimir Sesar, Zeljko Ivezic, Robert H. Lupton +29
We quantify the variability of faint unresolved optical sources using a catalog based on multiple SDSS imaging observations. The catalog covers SDSS Stripe 82, and contains 58 mill…
SDSS Standard Star Catalog for Stripe 82: the Dawn of Industrial 1% Optical Photometry
Zeljko Ivezic, J. Allyn Smith, Gajus Miknaitis +2
We describe a standard star catalog constructed using multiple SDSS photometric observations (at least four per band, with a median of ten) in the system. The catalog inclu…
SDSS spectroscopic survey of stars
Z. Ivezic, D. Schlegel, A. Uomoto +37
In addition to optical photometry of unprecedented quality, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is also producing a massive spectroscopic database. We discuss determination of stel…
A Comparison of SDSS Standard Star Catalog for Stripe 82 with Stetson's Photometric Standards
Z. Ivezic, J. A. Smith, G. Miknaitis +21
We compare Stetson's photometric standards with measurements listed in a standard star catalog constructed using repeated SDSS imaging observations. The SDSS catalog includes over…
Science Results Enabled by SDSS Astrometric Observations
Z. Ivezic, N. Bond, M. Juric +8
We discuss several results made possible by accurate SDSS astrometric measurements in a large sky area, with emphasis on asteroids and stellar proper motions obtained by comparing…
